FOUNDERS ' DAY The Founders ' Day celebration held annually at Pikeville College dates back to 192 , when formal tribute was first paid to the achievements of the men who founded the school and set the beacon of higher learning in the Kentucky hills. The exercises of the day began in the chapel, and then friends of the college and students mingled on the campus until noon. At that time the Junior College students, then known as the College Class, served lunch . The exercises were concluded with an afternoon service held in the Presbyterian Church. This celebration has since become one of the annual events of the college, October is the month for the celebration. The 1939 celebration was two-fold in purpose. Approximately three hundred fifty alumni took part in the semi-centennial and Founders ' Day program on October 11-12. During the course of this celebration the college received two very valuable gifts. The first was a set of silvei-toned chimes given by the Alumni Association. These were given to fulfil the frequently expressed desire of Dr. James F. Record to have soft, peaceful music floating over the valley. The other gift was two hundred hymn books for the chapel from Mrs. Hester Trivette in memory of her husband, Mr. Linton Trivette. A historical pageant given in the chapel on Wednesday evening was one of the most interesting parts of the whole program. This portrayed five scenes taken at ten-year intervals from 1889 to 1929. Mrs. May Elliott Shurtleff was responsible for the direction, of this pageant. The various persons taking part in the pageant were Misses Ruth Harman, Marie Huffman, Virginia Hat cher, Margery Harman, Delia Childers, Annette and Rebecca Jean Donaldson, Patty Preston, Emma Jo Bowles, Elmo Childers, and Mary R. Phinney; Mrs. Violet Connolly, Mrs. Rachael RatlifF, Mrs. Margaret Hatcher, Mrs. Grace Burke , and Mrs . Katherine Doak; Messrs . F. S. Huffman , J. R. Huffman, J. M. Hatcher. Jr., F. A. Connolly, Walter Walters, W. M. Connolly, Burl Ratcliffe, James Miller, and Sidney Ratliff, Jr. Music was furnished by the College Glee Club under the direction of Miss Lombard. The all-college parade on Thursday afternoon ended the celebra- tion. Students of the Training School, the Academy, and the College, as well as the faculty members, took part in the parade. The colorful Ford Pipe Band, an organization of Scotch pipers and drummers, who had also played on the campus Wednesday night and Thursday morning, and had given a concert in Wickham Chapel Thursday night, led the parade. This gay band is sent out by the Ford Motor Company. The college was very fortunate in- deed to have them come from Detroit for this occasion . The contribution made by Pikeville College and other church colleges was stressed by Dr. James E. Clark of Nashville, Tennessee, who gave an address on The Present Crisis in Education at ten o ' clock on Thursday morning. Frank Scott, president of the Alumni Association, and Dr. Crooks, president of the college, also spoke at this meeting. Dr. Crooks read greetings from President Roosevelt, Senators Alben W. Barkley and Robert A. Taft, Governor A. B. Chandler, Representative A. J, May, Judge King Swope, and a large number of heads of colleges and seminaries from several states. Several social events for the alumni and visitors formed an im- portant part of the program. These included a tea at the home of Dr. and Mrs. H. M. Crooks, and a banquet and a luncheon, both in the college cafeteria. At the luncheon President Lloyd of Maryville College spoke on Fifty-year Convictions. In this ad- dress he looked both backward and forward, paying tribute to the history of Pikeville College, and ending with the quotation, Hope is greater than history. Alumni who contributed a great deal to making the semi-centennial Founders ' Day a success are Mrs. Madeline Childers Hatcher, Mrs. Margaret Cornett Hatcher, Mrs. May Elliott Shurtleff, Mrs. Hester Frances Trivette, Miss Mary I. Spilman, Mrs. Georgia Forsyth, Mr. Harrison Bowles, Mr. W. P. Call, and Mr. Frank Forsyth. r 10] Tl f ? 9?W T H E C L A S S E S Edith Adkins GREASY CREEK, KENTUCKY Teachers Course Psychology Club, 1; Hutory Club, 1; Y. W. C. A., 1.

In 1889, exactly fifty years ago, three acres of land were pur- chased and a four-room brick building was built for school and church. Reverend David Biythe was selected as principal. Ten years later Dr. James F. Record became principal, and tvv ' o teachers were employed. During that first year many hardships were endured. Poor dwelling places, sickness, and poor attendance of pupils necessitated the dismissal of one teacher. A training class for teachers was established at Pikeville Collegiate In- stitute in 1901, and there was a good enrollment. The department was carried on with great success. A few years ago it became the Training School of Pikeville College. The enrollment of the school increased rapidly during the first years of the twentieth century, and in 1906 Mr. John O. Simpson, trustee from Covington, donated 40,000 for the building and equipping of the Derriana. It was completed in 1908 and was named in honor of Mr. Simpson ' s sister. This building still serves as the dormitory for women. Dr. Record resigned in 1911 but returned to his work at Pikeville in 1915. From that year until his resignation in 1932, he served as president of Pikeville College, and completed a splendid service. In 1925 a new Administration Building was begun. It was completed in the following year. A chapel and pipe organ were given by Mrs. Delos O. Wickham of Detroit, and the chapel was named in her honor. She also gave a large amount of money for the building of Wickham Hall, a dormi- tory for boys. The first Founders ' Day was observed on October 21, 1925. Doctor Condit was the last speaker on the program, and the audience rose to show their love and appreciation for him. Before Founders ' Day, 1926, Doctor Condit had died. The Kentucky Legislature passed a bill impowering certain accredited colleges having no state aid to give work required for the teacher ' s certificate, and Pikeville College has been given that privilege. Dr. Record gave up his active work in 1932. On May 26, 1935, he died at Danville, Kentucky. His loss has been keenly felt by many persons {Continiu-il on pdfic 4) [25] ACADEMY CLASSES m:w JUNIORS u N O R This year the Junior Class is composed of seven full-fledged members, an addition of one to the six who were Sophomores in the Academy last year.

A C T V T E S Y. M . C . A . Meetings of the College Y are held every Tuesday evening in the social room of Wick- ham Hall. At these weekly meetings a wide variety of programs is possible, but it is the aim of the program committee to arrange for at least four types of program every month: religion, current problems, of either campus or society; a special speaker; a co-ed meeting with the sister organization on the campus, the Y. W. Apart from the regular meetings, the Y at- tempts to take active leadership in the religious life of the campus. Members of the Y serve in the rural Sunday Schools which meet on Sunday afternoons; efforts have been made from time to time to increase interest in Hi-Y clubs in the high schools of the county; one member of the Y helped to organize a foot- ball team among the boys of the neighborhood. Of great importance has been the work of the Y in helping with the week of Religious Emphasis held on the campus every spring. Membership in the Y is growing, and with that growth is coming wider influence. Officers GiFFORD Varney - President Tom Hays • • Vice-President William Baldridge Secretary Kenneth Helton Treasurer A.

It is important to us because it is a world-wide organization and also because it is the basis of spiritual life in our school. In our ' . W. we hn e formed man close friend- ships through a common purpose — learning more and more about the truths of God. Miss North has been our faithful sponsor, and the ear has been a gcod one. There have been many interesting guest speakers. Song services with the Y. M. C. A. and topic discussion programs have been popular. We sincerely hope that the Y. W. C.

To become a member a student must have earned membership points by taking part in one or more sports. To retain her member- ship, she must remain active by participating in some activity each semester. The members have been successful in their money raising campaign. Their pledge to the score board fund has been paid, and membership and honor emblems have been bought. An outstanding project is ahead, when the W. A. A. expects to meet the faculty team in a basketball game. [343 D B This year ' s debate team started off under a decided handicap, in that all of the first team debaters of last year were graduated. How- ever, several newcomers have shown promise. Debates have been scheduled with Waynes- burg College of Pennsylvania, Centre and East- ern of Kentucky, and Rio Grande of Ohio. The team expects also to meet Georgetown and Berea. The climax of the season will be the annual Southeastern Phi Rho Pi tournament, held this year at Bluefield, Virginia.

No game would ing section is just about as interesting as the have been complete without the cheers and game itself. THE COACH Coach J. K. Rash is a graduate of Penn College, Oskaloosa, Iowa, and has an M.A. degree from the Y. M. C. A. Graduate School at Nashville, Tennessee. He came to Pikeville in 1937, and has been a very successful coach for three Bear teams. In the 1938- ' 39 season he was president of the Kentucky Junior College Athletic Confer- ence. His teams and fans are now trying to get a new gym for Pikeville College. ■■HIi H EAR After a well-earned victory over the Alumni, the Bears journeyed to Ashland on December 12, where they were com- pletely overwhelmed by the Ashland sharp- shooters. It was the first conference game of the year, and the Bears were defeated to the tune of 52-33 score. Blackburn for Pikeville and Higgins for Ashland led the scoring with fourteen points each. The next game, with Lee ' s College on De- cember 15, found the Bears hitting their stride, as they handed the Lee ' s basketeers a 45-25 defeat. The Rashmen held a com- fortable lead throughout the game. Black- burn with twelve points and Blankenship with nine were high for the Bears. White with eight points led the Lee ' s scoring. The game was played on the Breathitt County High School floor. On January 5, the Dragons of Sue Ben- nett invaded the lair of the Pikeville Bears and carried away a 38-34 victory. The game was close and exciting throughout. The Bears played a commendable game, but they were unable to cope with the more evenly balanced Dragons. The Bears were also without the services of their high-scor- ing forward, Clyde Blackburn, who was out with a broken collar-bone. Hays was high for Pikeville with fourteen paints. Brana- man led the Sue Bennett Cagers with ten points. In the return game with Lee ' s on Janu- ary 12, the Rashmen again humbled the Lee ' s netmen by a 56-41 decision. The game was fast and Tom Hays got hot to capture the scoring honors with sixteen chalk-ups. Preece and Newsome rang up ten points each, and White gathered nine markers for Lee ' s. This game marked Pikeville ' s second conference win of the year. Led by Newsome and Sturgill, the Bears smothered the Campbellsville Tigers by a [49] score of 64-37. The game was played on the home floor on January 18. Newsome gath- ered sixteen points and Sturgill fourteen. In a non-conference skirmish with Hiwas- see, Tennessee, at Nora, Virginia, on Janu- ary 19, the Bears were defeated by a 41-31 margin. The Bears had a 21-18 lead at the half, but they could not withstand the heat turned on by the Hiwassee boys in the last half. Preece led Pikeville ' s scoring with nine points. On January 27, the experienced cagemen of Emory-Henry College handed the Bears a 52-34 shellacking. Hays was high for Pikeville with eleven points. The game was played on the Matewan, West Virginia, floor. Taking the road for a three-day jaunt, the Bears encountered the Raiders of Lind- sey- Wilson on January 29. The game was marked by numerous fouls, and Lindsey- Wilson emerged with a 47-23 dicision. Hays and Preece led Pikeville with five points each. In the second game of the trip Camp- bellsville gained revenge by a 27-26 vic- tory. Newsome, with five points, and Blankenship, with ten, were high for Pike- ville. Still jinxed by their sudden slump, the Rashmen went down before the attack of the Sue Bennett Dragons on January 31, to the tune of a 34-20 score. Hays led the Bears with eight points. On a two-day road trip, February 5-6, the Bears were defeated by Morehead Frosh 37-20. Kerns with five points was high for the Bears The following night the Bears again met defeat at the hands of the Mar- shall Frosh, the score being 42-29. Tatum led the Rashmen with eleven points. On February 10, in a game that was much closer than the score indicated, the Bears went down before Lindsey- Wilson with a 41-29 score. Tom Hays got hot and chalked up sixteen points for the Bears. The Bears defeated Morehead Frosh on February 15, by a 44-43 margin. Tom Hays again led the Rashmen with sixteen points. The Bears were smothered on February BLANKENSHIP Vernon always plays hard and he really should go places next year. HAYS Tom is not only the tallest man on the team, but also high scorer for the year. KERNS If speed and good floorwork count , Harry will be a val- uable man to the team next year. NEWSOME ' Butch is one of the fastest men on the team and is also second as a scorer. OWENS Although Paul is the smallest man on the team he can rebound with the best. [50] PREECE Forest is a good floor man, and his spectac- ular long shots have caused many thrills. STUM BO Showing the effects of a year ' s inactiv- ity in basketball, Bill did not hit his stride until near the close of the season. TATUM Clinton is a good man to place under the basket. He should be one of the leading scorers for 1941. BERT HAYS Last year as one of the Freshman man- agers, and this year as THE manager, Bert has planned for and taken care of the Bears and the visiting teams in such a way as to win the admiration of his comrades and their fans. COACH J. K. RASH Coach Rash is to be commended upon his handling of this year ' s team. Al- though his record in scores for this sea- son is not above av- erage, he has built the foundation for a good future team. 20, by the Marshall Freshmen to the tune of a 64-26 score. Newsome gathered five points for the Bears. The Bears closed their basketball season on February 23, by taking a 59-43 drubbing from the Ashland Thoroughbreds.

In the consolation game on February 27, the Bears fell before the Ashland sharp- shooters, 54-37. Tatum was high for Pike- ville with thirteen points.

Second Row: Hylton (Manager), Cassady, Adkins, Cline (Captain), Ratliff, Mat- ney, Leitch (Coach). Third Row: Hutcheson, Chrisman. Sullivan, Sanders. ACADEMY BASKETBALL In his second year of coaching at the Academy, A. H. Leitch has turned out the best Cub team in three years. It was mostly through Coach Leitch ' s patience and work that the team reached the height it did. Out of twenty games played, nine were won and eleven lost. Most of these games were against the best teams in this section. The schedule included games with Hellier, Dorton, Phelps, Prestonburg, Johns Creek, Virgie, Belfry, Cumberland, Salyersville, and Betsy Layne. The highlights of the sea- son were victories over the strong Salyersville and Preston- burg teams, also a win over Virgie, a team the Cubs had not beaten for a number of years. Six letter men will be lost by graduation and next year ' s team will have to come from the reserves. Easily the most outstanding player in the team was the Captain, Perry Cline. He averaged ten points per game and sparked the team both on offense and defense. Ratliff was next in scoring, averaging seven points per game. Sid- ney was the best long shot on the team and a scoring threat at all times. In the first game of the tournament the Cubs met their ancient rivals, the Panthers from Pike Hi. Although they scored more points against them than any other team in the tournament did, the Cubs went down in defeat, 18 to 30. The sting of this defeat was lessened somewhat by the fact that the team was awarded the Sportsmanship Trophy. Cline was a unanimous choice for a position on the first All-Tournament Team. Ratliff was placed on the second team. COACH A. H. LEITCH He shows the Cubs how to become Bears. Marrs, Ratliff CUB CHEERLEADERS r52] TENNIS TEAM Front Row: W, Forsyth, C. Blackburn, R. Cheek.

His work was taken up by Dean Frank McClelland who, on October 12, 1932, be- came president. Dr. McClelland was president until 1937, at which time he accepted a call to our sister institution, Maryville College. For a year, local trustees and faculty worked hard at the task of keeping the College going. In 1938, a new friend. Doctor H. M. Crooks, became president. On October 12, 1939, Dr. Record ' s wish came true: a set of chimes was installed. The chimes, given by the Alumni Association, were dedicated to the memory of Dr. Record. Very fittingly, at five-thirty-five, the chimes rang out the melody of Dr. Record ' s favorite hymn, This Is My Father ' s World, reminding all who have been concerned with Pikeville ' s fifty years of growth that this is indeed our Father ' s world. -h..
